Traveling with young families is challenging enough without having to pack everything but the kitchen sink – we can help! We have a CHILD GATE at the bottom of the stairs for safety. We have a TRAVEL COT so you do not have to bring yours. Also, we have a HIGH CHAIR and BOOSTER SEAT for your use if you need them. We also have fire pit equipment and marshmallow/hotdog toasting forks available if you need them. We also know that trying to get everything down to the beach can be a feat in itself with children in tow so let us introduce you to our newest family-focused addition – The SeaHaven Express! Our little green wagon (see photos) is just perfect for taking all those essentials down for a day at the beach, because we know how many hands you have! We also have a cooler with ice packs, umbrellas and a couple of folding chairs. Simply ask at time of booking if you want to use any of these items and we can have them ready for when you arrive.
